Dove - Calls for Dad

Though Dove hit a homerun in viewership with its Real Beauty Sketches video, there are plenty who believe it perpetuates the false importance of beauty in the evaluation of self-worth.

A WestJet employee trained to take over the father’s position for five days, then WestJet flew the father to the Ronald McDonald House where his son and wife were staying. A truly touching video, these two companies show what can happen when powers combine for a great cause.
